I’ve found that mercury vapor bulbs can be used in metal halide fixture, but a metal halide bulb cannot be used in a mercury vapor fixture. There is a major difference between the metal halide lamp and the other one.
There is no difference between the two types of lamps. A metal halide lamp is a light source that creates light by passing an electricarc through a mixture of mercury and metal halides.
High intensity discharge is the term used for the high pressure sodium and metal halide lamps. These bulbs offer different amounts of light output and operate in different colors.

1. The lamp uses mercury vapor to create a powerful light, but also includes other metals to improve the color. A metal and a chemical compound called a Halide are used for lamps.
A 250 watt metal halide lamp and a 250 watt high pressure sodium lamp have the same mercury content.
